Smallpox Alarm Ripples Through South Bethlehem
The South Bethlehem smallpox scare continues with about 120 cases in a town of four thousand. Lehigh University allows students to depart, Bishopthorpe school may close, and several houses are quarantined while authorities guard confluent cases. Vaccination efforts show signs of containment as deaths rise with eight years hard labor sentence for a military case.
